I joined EY GDS recently and noticed juniors referring Managers or Senior as "Sir", "Mam". Is it a common practise across the teams of EY? Should everybody follow the same?

In my previous company , my manager used to call me sir - whenever there was some arguments / discussion or different point of view ๐Ÿ˜‚. He used to call me by my name under normal circumstances ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Can totally feel that, I do the same with my staffs when I get really pissed because of them but want to control myself somehow, lol ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

On my first day at my service line training was told to refer them by their name and not by sir or mam... Might differ probably.

Its just the habit they follow after coming out of college, probably they are new from college so needs time adapt to change

In EY there is no culture of referring managers by sir or mam, just like in all MNCs you have to call some one by name. Sometimes when you have freshers and just out of college they refer seniors as sir , mam but as time goes they too learn

No

Even to parner I used to call his/her name instead of sir madem

No, that's not a company wide practice. May be the team you have joined is practising it.

Nope....we even call Partners by thier name.Its not EY culture.

Well, contrary I felt that using short names were norm mostly & it wasn't just restricted to managers, counselor, partners but everyone else does that. It's completely okay when indicating short names so as to make the name list remembered easier. However "Sir" as a title is completely unprofessional if you're getting it as much so often in EY GDS. Haven't gotten across that so far, tho!

Don't do that. Address everyone by their first names

Not true at all. Not practiced in the firm. I was referred to as 'sir' by my senior manager a couple of times. In general, everyone is addressed by their first names including leadership

It's regularly licking tactic and is totally unprofessional but what I have noticed is seniors don't even discourage it to stop it.

How many days EY took to release the offer letter?

For me it took only 1 week after salary discussion.
